Automatic main beam
headlights
Depending on the vehicle, this system
switches the main beam headlights on
and off automatically. The function uses
a camera located behind the interior
rear-view mirror to detect vehicles that
are following and coming in the oppo-
site direction.
The main beam headlights come on au-
tomatically if:
– exterior light is weak;
– no other vehicles or lighting are de-tected;
– the vehicle speed is above approxi- mately 25 mph (40 km/h).
If any of the above conditions are not
fulfilled, the system switches to dipped
beam headlights.
The “automatic main beam
headlights” system should
under no circumstances be
used to replace driver atten-
tion and responsibility with regard
to vehicle lighting and adapting to
light, visibility and traffic conditions.
The system may encounter difficul-
ties under certain conditions, inclu-
ding :
– extreme weather conditions (rain, snow, fog, etc.);
– obstruction in front of the wind- screen or camera;
– when a following or oncoming ve- hicle has weak or hidden lighting;
– incorrect settings for the front headlights;
– reflective systems;
– ...

Vehicle fitted with front
windscreen wiper rain sensor
The rain sensor is located on the winds-
creen, in front of the interior rear-view
mirror.
A single sweep
A short push will trigger one sweep
of the wipers.
B stop
C automatic wiper function
When this position is selected, the
system detects water on the wind-
screen and triggers the wipers at a
suitable wiping speed. It is possi-
ble to change the triggering thresh-
old and the time sweeps by turning
ring 2:
– F : minimum sensitivity
– G : maximum sensitivity
The higher the sensitivity, the quic-
ker the wipers will react and the
faster the wipe. When activating automatic wiping or
when increasing sensitivity, one sweep
of the blades is performed.
Note:
–
the rain sensor is only intended as a
driving aid. In the event of reduced
visibility, the driver should manually
activate the wipers. In foggy weather
or during snowfalls, wiping is not au-
tomatically triggered and remains
under the driver’s control;
– in the event of temperatures below
zero, automatic wiping is not acti-
vated when the vehicle is started. It
is automatically activated as soon as
the vehicle exceeds a certain speed
(approximately 5 mph (8 km/h));
– do not activate automatic wiping in
dry weather;
– fully de-ice the windscreen before
activating automatic wiping.

WINDSCREEN WASH, WIPE (4/6)
Specific front wiper position
(service position)
This position enables the blades to be
lifted to remove them from the winds-
creen.
It may be useful to:
– to clean the blades;
– to release the blades from the winds-creen in winter;
– replace the blades (refer to the “Wiper blades: replacement” para-
graph in Section 5).
With the ignition on and the engine off,
lower the windscreen wiper stalk fully
(fast continuous wipe position). The
wiper arms stop in a position away from
the bonnet.
To return the blades to position, make
sure they have been placed on the
windscreen, then move the stalk to po-
sition B (stop) with the ignition on.
Before switching on the ignition,
place the wipers on the windscreen.
Otherwise, there may a risk of damage
to the bonnet or the wipers when they
are switched on.
In the event of obstacles on the
windscreen (dirt, snow, ice etc.),
clean the windscreen (including the
central area located behind the inte-
rior rear view mirror) before starting
the wipers (risk of motor overheat-
ing).
If an object is preventing a blade
from moving, it may stop functio-
ning. Remove the obstacle and
reactivate the wiper using the wiper
stalk.
Before any action involving
the windscreen (washing
the vehicle, de-icing,
cleaning the windscreen,
etc.) return stalk 1 to position B
(stop).
Risk of injury and/or damage.
Note: after replacement, to reposition
the blades correctly, make sure the
blades are resting on the windscreen,
switch on the ignition and activate the
wiper control.

2.40
LANE DEPARTURE WARNING (1/3)
This system notifies the driver when
they accidentally cross a continuous or
broken line.
This function uses a camera attached
to the windscreen, behind the rear-view
mirror.
This function is an additional driving aid. This function is not under any
circumstances intended to replace the due care and attention of the
driver, who should at all times be in control of the vehicle.
System servicing/repairs
– In the event of an impact, the camera alignment may be changed, and its \
op- eration may consequently be affected. Deactivate the function, then consult an
authorised dealer.
– Any work in the area where the camera is located (repairs, replacements\
, wind- screen modifications etc.) must be carried out by a qualified professio\
nal.
Only an authorised dealer is qualified to service the system.
In the event of system disturbance
Some conditions can disturb or damage the operation of the system, such \
as:
– a complex environment (tunnel etc.);
– poor weather conditions (snow, hail, black ice etc.);
– poor visibility (night, fog etc.);
– road markings which are worn, lacking in contrast or very widely spaced \
from one another (lines partially erased etc);
– being dazzled (glaring sun, lights of vehicles travelling in the opposi\
te direction etc.);
– the road is narrow, winding or undulating (tight bends etc.);
– closely following a vehicle travelling in the same lane.
Risk of false alarms or absence of warnings

BLIND SPOT WARNING (3/4)
Operation
This function will indicate:
– when the vehicle speed is between approximately 30 km/h (19 mph) and
140 km/h (87 mph);
– when another vehicle is in the blind spot area and travelling in the same
direction as your vehicle.
If another vehicle is being overtaken,
the indicator 6 will be activated only if
that vehicle remains in the blind spot for
more than one second.
Indicator 6
An indicator light 6 is located on each
door mirror 7.
Note: clean the rear view mirrors 7
regularly so that the indicators 6 can be
seen.
Display B
The function is activated and has not
detected any vehicles.
Display C
First warning: the indicator 6 means
that a vehicle has been detected in the
blind spot.
Display D
When the direction indicator is acti-
vated, the indicator light 6 flashes when
a vehicle is detected in the blind spot on
the side towards which you are about to
steer. If you cancel the direction indica-
tor, the function will return to the initial
warning (display C).

OVERSPEED ALERT (1/3)
The overspeed alert with signage panel
recognition notifies the driver that they
are exceeding the speed limit for the
section of road on which they are cur-
rently travelling.For vehicles equipped with a navigation
system and if the vehicle is travelling in
a country where the speed units differ
from those of the vehicle, the system
displays the speed limit sign in the unit
of the country, alongside the speed limit
converted to the unit used by the vehi-
cle’s instrument panel.
For countries where the speed limit is
reduced during rainy weather on some
types of roads, on vehicles equipped
with a navigation system, the system
can modify the limited speed after a few
seconds of wiping the windscreen.
Special situations
The system does not take into account
exceptional speed limit measures, such
as peak pollution days.
On equipped vehicles, some infor-
mation is given on the head-up dis-
play.
1Operating principle
The system detects speed limit signs
on the side of the road and displays the
speed limit.
It mainly uses information taken from
the camera 1
, attached to the wind-
screen behind the rear-view mirror.
Note: Make sure the windscreen is not
obstructed (dirt, ice, snow, etc.).
For vehicles which are equipped with it,
the system also uses information from
the navigation system.
Once the speed limiter is activated, you
can adjust the speed limiter indication
displayed by the system.
In the event of exceeding the speed
limit, the sign display is modified (the
characters change to red or the circle
around the sign flashes) no notify you.

Fixed clearance gauge 3
The fixed clearance gauge comprises
coloured markers A, B and C , indicat-
ing the distance behind the vehicle:
– A (red) approximately 30 centime-
tres from the vehicle;
– B (yellow) approximately 70 centime-
tres from the vehicle;
– C (green) approximately 150 centi-
metres from the vehicle.
This gauge remains fixed and indicates
the vehicle trajectory if the wheels are
in line with the vehicle.Operation
When reversing, the camera transmits
a view of the surroundings to the rear
of the vehicle to the screen 2 accompa-
nied by one or two clearance gauges 3
et 4 (mobile and fixed). This system
is initially used with the aid of several
gauges (mobile for trajectory and fixed
for distance). When the red zone is
reached, use the bumper image to stop
accurately.
The frames are a representation projected onto flat ground; this informa\
tion must
not be taken into account when superimposed on a vertical object or an o\
bject
on the ground.
